I’ve written about this object before. We found it on a beach in Ireland, just a little way around from where I photographed my rock face. We’d decided to climb along the rocks at the water’s edge to a small cove we could see in the distance. It turned out to be a fairly challengingContinue reading “Hugh’s Photo Challenge Week 11 – Rust”

Hugh’s Photo Challenge Week 9 – Stripes
Hugh, over at Hugh’s Views and News, runs a regular photo challenge with different themes every week. This week the theme is stripes, and here’s my entry: I snapped these wonderful stripy leaves on a walk to school last autumn – I think they look quite tropical, rather than something you’d find in an EnglishContinue reading “Hugh’s Photo Challenge Week 9 – Stripes”
A Question Of Orbs
A few weeks ago, Hugh over at Hugh’s Views and News posted an image he had taken on the beach which featured a strange glowing orb. We ended up having a conversation in the comment section, as I had also blogged about a photograph in which I’d captured some unexplained phenomenon. I mentioned I hadContinue reading “A Question Of Orbs”
Wednesday Wander – Andorra La Vella
This Wednesday Wander takes us to Andorra La Vella, the capital of the tiny mountainous principality of Andorra. While known now mainly for skiing and tax-free shopping, Andorra has a long history, positioned as it is between Spain and France. The site of Andorra La Vella has been settled since pre-Christian times, and in theContinue reading “Wednesday Wander – Andorra La Vella”
Wednesday Wander – Pike Place Market, Seattle
It’s time for my Wednesday Wander and this week it’s to Pike Place Market in Seattle. I took this photo in the early evening, just after we arrived. The rain had cleared and our hotel was only a few blocks from the market, so we wandered down in search of dinner. As it was late,Continue reading “Wednesday Wander – Pike Place Market, Seattle”
Thursday Doors and Funny Faces
Back when I was at university, I had to take a short photography course as part of my degree. I wasn’t very good at it, to be honest. I had my grandfather’s old Pentax complete with an awesome selection of lenses (which I still have), but it was quite a large and unwieldy camera toContinue reading “Thursday Doors and Funny Faces”
Wednesday Wander – Roses in Morocco
Over the past few weeks I’ve been doing ‘Wordless Wednesday’, where I posted a photo each Wednesday with no accompanying copy. However, ‘wordless’ just isn’t me, so I decided to come up with my own way to describe my images. I’ve settled on ‘Wander Wednesday,’ as most of the photos I take are while I’mContinue reading “Wednesday Wander – Roses in Morocco”
Of Doors and Getting Back Into Things
I’ve just come back from holidays. Oh, very nice, you might say – and you’d be right 🙂 At the same time, it was a busy couple of weeks. No sitting around on beaches – instead we had a planes-trains-and-automobiles type trip starting in Vancouver, Canada and ending in Cambria, California, taking in the sightsContinue reading “Of Doors and Getting Back Into Things”
